Dragon Ball Z: Paradise Found

The World's Strongest Guy

Dr. Wheelo halted with an eruption of blinding jets behind him that reminded of Ki waves. The motions that the mechanical body of the arrogant scientist had to go through in order to halt its flight back were the most extreme that it had gone through up to date. The wires and tubes making Dr. Wheelo's limbs churned in tension as did the nuts and bolts holding the entire mechanical marvel together.

"He cracked the shell!" Tenshinhan quivered in shock, pointing at Dr. Wheelo who floated in a round, fetal-like pose in mid-air as flares of energy worked to keep him stationary. "Bardock almost broke through the glass protecting the brain with just one kick..."

"You dare attack me so suddenly!?" Dr. Wheelo yelled out as his body stretched out, releasing a thunderous shockwave from it once the flowing Ki jets ceased and Wheelo stabilized his flight.

"What are you talking about? I warned you to stop mentioning my son whether it is by his Earth name or his true name..." Bardock stretched the lower part of his wristband to correct it as the ones used by the Turtle School students were a great deal smaller than the wristbands worn by the Saiyan himself. "You've gone and done it. You've pissed me off so now I've gotta bust you up."

"Defeat me!?" Dr. Wheelo extended his hands to the sides, compartments surrounding the dome where his supersized brain resided opened up and bright light began beaconing from within them. A warning of the flashing destruction about to commence. "This mechanical body utilizes the materials from my lab, connecting them into a fully functional combat mech utilizing the finest Ki energy engine that modern science knows. Its might is fully capable of using that energy to shield this shell from any harm. Not even Muten Roshi, a champion of the World Martial Arts Tournament can handle it. What chance do you think you have?"

Rampaging Ki waves blasted out from Dr. Wheelo's open compartments in a gatling fusillade, Bardock took off, dashing sideways to distract the rampant destruction from the injured Dragon Team as it proceeded to obliterate everything it touched, leaving pillars of shooting out geysers of water and blasting shrapnel storms of solid chunks of ice but Bardock was nowhere near the blast zone each and every time to deal with it.

"Quit bragging!" Bardock roared out as he dashed in from the right and threw a hook in Dr. Wheelo's mid-section, bending the protective shell of the mechanical bot and ripping through the outer layer with his punch as if his fists wrecked through cardboard. "I've not fought the old man, you haven't punched me nor have you taken punches from me so you won't know how hard you can hit me and how hard I can dish it back!"

Bardock vanished, appearing before the cracked glass dome where Dr. Wheelo's brain rested in. The Saiyan socked a decent blow directly into the crack that his previous dropkick had left but Wheelo managed to turn just in time, having the blow skid off and leave a scrape instead of busting right through. It was about to stop the rampaging Saiyan as he smacked with an open palm, swinging his other, free arm downward and throwing Dr. Wheelo off-guard by throwing off his visual input. Another hook, this time to the front of the dome. The cracks on Wheelo's protective glass case widened and proceeded to reach all the way to the edge of the dome as the glass bent out of shape.

It was likely that Wheelo couldn't even see Bardock's transition to the softer close-range blows to the devastating thrust kick that sent him flying and appeared to disable any potential inputs from the doctor and take any attempts to establish control over his drone that was being trounced off the table. Bardock pursued his airborne opponent with a snap, driving his left fist into the lower part of Dr. Wheelo's robotic body, right underneath the core, and took the battle skyward with a rising punch. Electricity sparked out from the ridge that the Saiyan left on the more delicate part of Dr. Wheelo's battle-bot.

"Off my back, you annoying gnat!" Dr. Wheelo yelled out, opening up the claws of his mech to unleash yellow Ki waves of solid energy beaming at Bardock who continued to rush after his opponent with the full intent of crushing the entire mechanical structure Dr. Wheelo resided in to bits. The Saiyan yelled out in pain as he collided with the beams head-on and made a vociferous splash into the freezing waters down below.
